Hello everyone! 

Last week we discussed- What triggers your feelings of low self-esteem? If you haven't checked yet, please click here to add your thoughts. 

This week's prompt is a two-step process- 

1. State the obstacle that you are experiencing or experienced
2. Ask yourself and share, "What can I learn from this? How can I grow from this experience?"

 

Today I want us to reflect upon the learnings and insights we gained encountering obstacles. Please share and discuss here among us.

Join us in the 24/7 General Support Group Chat to share and support each other.

No idea what my obstacle is, I'm finding that out now. All I know is that no matter how much I adjust my life, it always ends up being highly stressful. I suspect my obstacle to be myself, my inhability to say no or to take on more than I can chew when I'm ok, forgetting that not everyday is a good day.

@Camus00 It sounds like taking on more than you can handle and having difficulty saying no is creating a lot of stress in your life. You are aware of your tendency to overcommit, and that self-awareness is a good first step to making changes. What kinds of pressures do you feel make it hard to have good boundaries?
